8 USC 1357 authorizes immigration officials to question anyone without a warrant about their right to be in the U.S. It also allows immigration officials to arrest anyone they have reason to believe is in the U.S. in violation of the law. Thus, ICE can interrogate and/or arrest anyone who is in the U.S illegally without a warrant.
Questioning, arresting and investigating is part of the immigration law due process, which may result in someone being detained until they can prove they are eligible for an immigration benefit or deported, removed or voluntarily returned.
While deportation or removal proceedings are pending, it may be possible to be released with an immigration bond or under an order of release on recognizance.
